more of a personal note to remember some commands that were useful. I figure this is more likely to survive or be found compared to a gist/repo/onenote/whatever.

Currently contains powershell to set environment variables properly, list content of partition table on any device from the esp32 families, and an oEmbed test of a LottieFiles animation (success). See TOC!

GitHub Expand All Diffs

javascript:(function(){document.querySelectorAll('button').forEach(function(button){if(button.textContent.includes('Load Diff')){button.click(); button.click();}});})();

Picture in Picture for all videos currently on page, removing the disabled attribute if present:

(Add this as a bookmark then save with a name like 'pip - picture in picture' so it comes up easily in the URL bar)

javascript:document.querySelectorAll("video").forEach(x=>{if(x.networkState!=2)return;x.attributes.getNamedItem("disablepictureinpicture")&&x.attributes.removeNamedItem("disablepictureinpicture");x.focus();x.requestPictureInPicture();})

Lottie Element oEmbed test of open window animation:

Powershell to add an environment variable permanently(?) at the user/whatever level:

Powershell for getting the partition table from any esp32/etc based device

Powershell for getting the partition table from any esp32/etc based device

*assuming the partition table is at 0x8000, but it can also be at 0x9000 on newer boards.

if you get an error and a board is in bootloader mode attached then change offset to 0x9000 and repeat. You need to have already run .\export from the esp-idf folder (for IDF_PATH).

Should only read 0xc00 bytes instead of 0x1000 but wanted to be sure and read two full blocks, doesn't hurt. Change 0x1000 to 0xc00 if you have sense / or want to google what the frick this does

Note to self:

I've created a modified version of ESPTOOL for the web (forked from esptool-js), which allows reading and displaying the partition table of a device, along with downloading any of the partitions (with sensible filenames!) Available to use here: https://tyeth.github.io/read-partitions-esptool-js/ The ported version of gen_esp32part.py is here: https://github.com/tyeth/read-partitions-esptool-js/tree/readCurrentPartitions/src (edited)

libtools, LD PATHs, LD_LIBRARY_PATH, LIBDIR, locally installed usbip

Libraries have been installed in:
   /usr/local/lib

If you ever happen to want to link against installed libraries
in a given directory, LIBDIR, you must either use libtool, and
specify the full pathname of the library, or use the '-LLIBDIR'
flag during linking and do at least one of the following:
   - add LIBDIR to the 'LD_LIBRARY_PATH' environment variable
     during execution
   - add LIBDIR to the 'LD_RUN_PATH' environment variable
     during linking
   - use the '-Wl,-rpath -Wl,LIBDIR' linker flag
   - have your system administrator add LIBDIR to '/etc/ld.so.conf'

See any operating system documentation about shared libraries for
more information, such as the ld(1) and ld.so(8) manual pages.

Ref - WSL2 installing usbip from source for remote ssh usb devices linked in to WSL2 ubuntu, original issue:

https://github.com/microsoft/WSL/issues/40259#issuecomment-4324133143

Hi @tyeth, the wsl ubuntu distro does not ship a linux-tools package. You may resolve this by building and installing usbip from source. You may follow these steps:

sudo apt install build-essential libudev-dev autoconf automake libtool pkg-config
git clone https://github.com/microsoft/WSL2-Linux-Kernel.git
cd WSL2-Linux-Kernel/tools/usb/usbip
./autogen.sh
./configure
make
sudo make install
sudo ldconfig

Then you should be able to use /usr/local/sbin/usbip to setup the usb device.

usbip auto-bind all devices, related commands / debugging etc
